Summary description:  Horizontally and vertically split elliptical nodes

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 The tikz-swigs package provides horizontally and vertically split
 elliptical (pairs of) nodes in TikZ.

 The two new multi-part shapes are `swig hsplit` and `swig vsplit`.
 These build on and extend the existing `ellipse split` shape provided
 in the `shapes.multipart` TikZ library in the following ways:

 - Space can be introduced physically separating the two sub-parts.

 - The cut that divides the ellipse can be horizontal `hsplit` or
   vertical `vsplit`.

 - The enclosing lines for each sub-part can be colored differently
   or can be double lines.

 - With `vsplit` the position of the dividing line relative to the
   original undivided ellipse is determined based on the relative
   size of the label text for the two pieces.

 - Anchors determined by angles are supported, for example `mynode.170`.
